A housewife (Day) is confronted during her daily chores by her married lover (Tone). The man, after a long affair, tells the woman that he has to break off their relationship. The woman threatens suicide but when she picks up a shish kabob skewer the two struggles and the man is stabbed in the chest and collapses. The housewife hides the body in the house. Before she can leave, her brother in law (Clark) arrives and tells the woman that he knows about the affair and that he's invited her husband, her lover and his wife to her house this evening so that he can tell them about the affair. The woman, in a panic worrying that they'll find out about the killing, attempts to flee but can't get away for her vengeful brother in law.
